Able to see highlights in Calibre ?

mharrop19 · 01-04-2010, 06:20 PM

Hi...

When I am reading a book on my PRS-600, I like to make a lot of highlights (without notes), and then when on my PC, I hook up the reader, and using Sony's Reader sw, I could open the book and see the highlights in the text right there on the PC screen.

I can't seem to be able to do this with Calibre...is that right, or am I doing something wrong?

The reason I need calibre to do it, is that I am one of those souls who has had the Sony Reader stop working on my PC for some reason

Yes, I could just have the reader beside me and manually goto the highlights that way, but it is MUCH easier using the PC sw.

Any ideas?

COuld this be a feature request?

THanks,
Mark

There's a software program called PRS Note viewer that allows you to do this, calibre currently does not, and yes there's alreadya feature request about it.

Thanks for that...I will just have to wait for you guys to implement it

The Notes program only shows notes, either typed or drawn, not highlights

Keep up the great work on this impressive piece of SW !
